Yippy Ya Yey!
Interesting fascination with hippies in India!
Not sure that is central to a presentation on India. In my opinion, hippies love to travel a lot, they want to live simpler lifestyles, some have droppen out of western culture, others are searching for meaning, still others just want to get high and have fun.

There are number of books on hippies at amazon. If your are looking for one specifically about the hippies in Goa, try the book Goa Freak.

 I suggest you post your questions, so that all the hippies here from the old days can attempt to respond.
